Over 30 years of retirement, Roskamp would collect as much as $5.42 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Sangamon Sun.
The projection assumes Roskamp received $113,928 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.
After 2 years of retirement, Roskamp will have already received $231,274 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
